We had brunch at a place we've been meaning to go to for a long time: Prospect Five Points. They're just south of the heart of Five Points on the east side of Margaret Street. I ordered the Short Rib Hash Bowl without tomatoes. My only critique was that I could've used a little more short rib and a little less potatoes but I liked everything else about it. The onions brought a sweetness to it that was really unique and I REALLY liked the seasoning that was on the huge pieces of toast with it. My wife had the Breakfast Burrito, which I could've called from before we even walked in. If a place had a breakfast burrito, she's gonna order it. This one was great. There was a lot of good flavor packed into that tortilla. She especially liked the chili sauce on top. It had a little kick that elevated the whole thing. We both liked the environment and our server was very nice. We would come back for sure to try other things or just to hang out at the big outdoor bar at the front. read more

Prospect is typically a 5 star experience. I've been frequenting there since I moved to Riverside and I still let people know that it's one of the best brunch and Happy Hour experiences in the area. We went this past Friday and while they had the same great food (with one exception), same decor and vibe, it seemed as if the typically impeccable service was staring to slip. The staff was in a great mood, seemed to be having a party and maybe that was some of the issue. Drinks not filled, food brought out a different points when we asked for it to be brought together etc. One of the guests requested their sauce on the side and it came right on top of her cold steak. We had to constantly grab anyone who worked there to get help and get served or drink refills. Very atypical of Prospect. I'm reviewing again to be constructive. I still love Prospect and I need them to be the excellent experience they have always been. I'm truly hoping this was a one off afternoon. read more

Overall good experience, we had Gleb and he did an amazing job trying to keep up but it seems like they were slammed yesterday. At one point the inside bartender had to shut down/stop taking orders because they were so behind. They did the best they could just dont think they were equipped to handle the Saturday night rush that came in. Food and drinks were really good, I'll be back but maybe not on the weekends. read more

Love the new streamlined menu, all our favorites are still there. Goat cheese ball and Brussels appetizers, along with my favorite Margaret Street flatbread. Service was a little disjointed and one of our table's entrees was slow to come out, did not get prepared as requested and was not warm. Drink refills were also hit or miss. Hoping it was just an off evening. read more

Oh how I love Saturday Brunch with the girls! It has been a minute since I was at Prospect and I realized I had never eaten at Prospect. Wow, I have been missing out. We split the breakfast flat bread with scrambled eggs, bacon, caramelized onions. So delicious. Friend had the buffalo chicken flatbread. The service was awesome! Cocktails flowed and great girlfriend time was had by all. read more

Absolutely love prospect. It's not our first trip but our first time trying all of these appetizers and they were cooked to perfection.

First meal I've had in Jacksonville and I found a little gem. It was the number 2 spot on Yelp in the neighborhood, and I can see why. The service behind the counter by Kay was excellent, I settled on the chicken tostones nachos on a whim and it was an excellent portion/really tasty. The inside was comfortable! I'm here all week I might come back! read more

Prospect Five Points - Chicken nachos - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

First off, I'll disclose I did not manage to get a picture of the menu. The menu is currently different than what's currently posted to yelp. As we were handed a menu that shown brunch specials but we arrived 10 minutes after the brunch cut off. The other side did show current options. Next this place is dog friendly on the patio and that was a welcomed surprise! They even brought some dog treats over for my dog. Our waiter was pleasant and informative for our first time. Only thing I'd say is when I ordered the chicken sandwich it was pictured with a fried chicken patty. My menu didn't describe if the sandwich I was order was fried or grilled. But once it arrived it was grilled and thankfully was still very good. Fries were perfectly crispy and not cold. And the shrimp tacos I'd consider were just normal, nothing special about them. But The drink was great and I had no complaints about it. Overall a great place for a Sunday meal if you have your pet with you. As the place was clean and had covered seating while outdoors. Just be ready to ask questions about the menu so you are confident what you're ordering. read more

When you walk in you might be confused where to go but I was told I could sit anywhere. I opted for the front bar dining room. It was a sat night and not super busy inside. More People oustide. They have 2 bars and seemed like most people were working in both areas. I started out order a sparkling flight. Had a cava a Prosecco and a rose. It took more than 15 min for my drinks to be brought to me which I thought was strange. The server did check back in multiple times and tell me it was coming but for something they didn't have to make it seemed like a long time. We stayed with goat cheese balls and short rib sliders. While ordered for the same course they came out at different times. We finish the goat cheese and then the sliders came. Both hot and tasty the cheese balls had hi ey and pistachios on them and we yummy. The sliders had great buns and the creme of Brie was delish. For dinner we ordered the burger and fries and the chicken lollipops with lemon pepper. The fries were a standout crispy hot and well seasoned. Salty in the best way. The chicken came out and I was surprised they were a large lollipop not a wing and very substantial. The Lemon Pepper sauce was wet and had heat but it as tangy also. My bf didn't finish his burger as he said it was ill but just kinda regular. Chicken was standout and we shared it. I didn't see dessert menu but we were full. For these items we were there almost 2 hours. Start to finish. Food was good and hot but timing seemed off. I can appreciate that all seemed fresh. !! read more

Food was so tasty! Such a cute ambiance. Our server Elijah was not only prompt and thorough, he was hilarious and had such a good vibe!

The food was good, the service was lacking. We came for happy hour and they were out of the house wine and forced us into paying the higher priced drinks. They just seemed a little Discombobulated. read more

We stopped in for happy hour with a reservation and were seated promptly. The service was fast and friendly. We enjoyed a glass of wine and an old fashioned with our appetizers. The sliders and the flatbreads were large enough for a light meal. We both enjoyed our food and look forward to visiting again soon. read more

Came here for dinner to celebrate a friend's birthday and it was a lovely experience. The server was super sweet and gave us a pecan pie on the house (with a bday candle). We shared the whipped jalapeño honey ricotta which was pretty tasty but needed some more jalapeños. We do love a good kick! I had the hot chicken sliders as my entree and it was made just right. Especially loved the cucumbers; it provided a nice crunch. The dining area had good lighting and was intimate and really great for chats. read more

We regularly go to Prospect House once or twice a week. The food is always delicious, the service is impeccable and the happy hours are unbelievable. We've been doing this for over three years.

Wow! A true gem of a restaurant. My wife and I are new to the area and wanted a drink. We sat at the outdoor bar! Cocktails and craft beers were amazing.

I won't go back to this restaurant. The staff was nice and apologized but we were there a hour and only received water and a small appetizer. We never got the cocktails we ordered or the entrees. They said it was a system failure but the people around me didn't seem to have trouble getting their cocktails or food. The staff should have been more attentive. I highly recommend going somewhere else. read more

Nice place to have dinner. The service was great. It was a nice warm day out so we decided to sit outside. The sun began to fall and the buggies started coming out so we moved inside and it was just as nice!! A nice glass of bubbly with some shared food with family. The steak was tender and juicy. Fries where crispy. Brussel sprouts were flavorful. The Brushetta board was definitely a hit. I hope these pictures make your mouth water because remembering makes mine! read more

Really quaint and yummy spot for a hangout with friends or a date! Stopped in a bit earlier than our reservation time on a Friday to have a drink at the bar. The bartender was super friendly and recommended lots of great things on the menu. Their house Pinot Grigio was really good too! While the restaurant was a lot smaller than I thought, it made it feel very intimate. For dinner, we started with the Truffle Frites ($10) - super truffley and a great recommendation by the bartender. Someone I was with had the Seasonal Burger, which was short rib and brisket with mac and cheese, picked onions, and BBQ sauce - really good! Someone else had the Sydney Flatbread ($14) and loved it. We also had the Beef Short Rib Sliders ($15) recommended by the bartender and they were great, the fig jam wasn't too sweet. Lastly, I took the bartender's final recommendation of the White Truffle Gnocchi with Grilled Chicken ($25) and LOVED it. A little salty but the gnocchi was so light and fluffy, and the sauce was heavenly. I want to go back and get it again!! Would definitely go back to Prospect Five Points and recommend it to others! They had a cute inside and outside area for any occasion! read more

This was probably one of my least favorite dining experiences. The caprese salad was described as fresh mozz; what was served was no more than what I can buy at the grocery store. The mussels special had a terrible sauce that looked and tasted like baby food and the mussels appeared to have come from a can or a cheap bag of frozen mussels. They also tasted off so we sent that back. The Cesar salad was served warmer than room temp and the lettuce was wilted. The whipped ricotta was also poorly done as the cheese was gritty. I accidentally spilled my water on the table in front of the waitress moving things around on the table so she could put our plates down. She never came back to wipe up the water. The restaurant it's self smelled very musty and we chose not to sit in the main dining area because the staff was blaring Kid Rock on a Bluetooth speaker right into the area. read more

Prospect Five Points - Mussels special - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I come here a lot. It's a great place to sit outside at one of the picnic tables, order a glass of wine and get a bite to eat. I personally LOVE the guac and tuna tar-tar selection. For many, (like my mom) it's too salty but I like salt. :) Otherwise, my friends and I split a flat bread or bruschetta board. Other great options are the hot and sweet chicken sandwiches, brussel sprouts, and rosemary fries. Seating options include the outdoor picnic tables, outdoor covered small tables and bar area or indoor tables and bar. I think the servers, staff, and management are top notch. Prospect has good happy hours and specials and is located in a cool, local neighborhood with visitors from adjacent parts of Jax stopping in. The only thing that bugs me at times, is when outdoor tables are reserved but the people show up late or not at all. Its not fun for 4 people being squeezed into a small two top table and seeing other tables being reserved and vacant throughout our dining experience. read more

Short ribs ragu...the dish wasn't that great because the chef used buctatini pasta instead of flat wide noodles, which would have been better with the sauce. The drink was great and Brussels were good. Service was good but that entrée really disappointed me. The sauce wasn't as seasoned and developed as I'm used to. Also, I was really hoping for handmade cut noodles. read more

It's been 2 weeks and we had been to Prospect Five Points twice so clearly we like it here. We can on a Saturday and Sunday afternoon and had no problem getting a table. They also offer Happy Hour every day of the week from 3pm-6pm and it's a good one, with both food and drinks. They have a large cocktail menu as well as a number of Brunch drinks. Our first time I went with the Apple of My Eye which is bourbon based and pretty good. I also tried the Happy Hour Margarita which as $8 and also tasty. They have great prices on beer too and a lot of options on draft. For beer I did the Bells 2 Hearted Ale which was $6 but on happy hour it's $2 off for great price. Prospect Five Points is for sure a place to come by for drinks since they pretty much have whatever you are looking for. During our first time we of course had to order an appetizer. The problem is they all sounded amazing so we had a real hard time picking out just one but we ended up doing the Hot Honey Chicken Sliders. It's just too hard for us to say no to something with Hot Honey. The sliders were great, chicken was crispy, and the Pineapple Slaw really pulled it all together. For entrees I went with the White Truffle Gnocchi with Grilled Chicken and Ashley had the Massaman Curry Short Rib. These were the 2 that sounded best to us and of course we were going to share them. The Truffle Gnocchi was great and I really enjoyed the richness from the Truffle. Really made for a heavy dish but so delicious. You can rarely go wrong with a Gnocchi dish. The Massaman Curry Short Rib was also great and was a completed different take on what I expected. The curry and Short Ribs are served over Rigatoni which sounds crazy but really works. Masaman Curry and Short Ribs are my go to so you put them together and you're getting something great. The only thing this dish could use is my option is more Massaman Curry but again that just cause a love it. Prospect Five Points will for sure be a place we continue to come to and next time we will be trying more the the appetizers. read more

Great friendly, prompt service. Our server Collette was a fantastic, friendly and efficient server. I give her a 10 out of ten. My daughter and I were looking for a new lunch adventure and decided on Prospect after reading several reviews. As it was a beautiful day outside we opted to sit on the outdoor patio. We enjoyed the shaded trees and coziness of the patio. We ordered two shareable, the chicken lollipops and the truffle fries. The chicken was done right; very flavorful and juicy. It was cover in a mustard sauce which provided some tang. The truffle fries were crispy and delicious. We also ordered the Sydney flatbread to share. The crispy bacon and the spicy sausage made the flatbread a hit. I would recommend Prospect for its great service and delicious food. read more

WONDERFUL!! Absolutely one of thee most memorable times shared with my hubby and our daughter at this quaint, friendly restaurant in the Riverside area. Father's Day will be Forever remembered for our invite to where our daughter works-and served her father and I lunch...on her! :0) Thanks BB for treating us to a Delicious: Ahi Stack (a Scrumptious Sesame seasoned) large portion of Ahi, stacked over Avocado with Fried Won Ton Chips, to scoop up the delectable creation prepared by the cook! Her dad dined on mini-Chicken Tacos smothered in a mouth tingling, spicy Aioli that was an inventive spin on the traditional Taco. The Dessert, their Carmel Sea Salt Cheesecake was a perfect treat for our tongues to enjoy the creamy, sweet & salty wrap up to a Perfect meal! The Smiling, genuinely concerned staff, gave us a delightful experience at their establishment and it was nothing short of Attentive & FABULOUS!!

Happened upon Prospect last Sat night when my friend was desperate for a bite to eat & some refreshing a/c. Luckily Prospect had a table available and we were seated inside immediately. Instantly the level of professional service was apparent and deeply appreciated in contrast to the rowdy crowd elsewhere in 5 points. Our server explained the tapas concept and highlighted their signature items. I wish I was more hungry when I visited, because I only ordered a caesar salad. But honestly it was delicious and I enjoyed every bite. Also liked my strawberry bliss cocktail, and really loved the Tampa beer "you're my boy blue"- a very flavorful fruity blueberry beer. Waitress was attentive yet we never felt rushed and my friend and I enjoyed a lovely chat over tapas and drinks. I 100% will be back when I'm in riverside again! read more

I came for happy hour and thoroughly enjoyed the specials! The $4 wine was perfectly acceptable and the flatbread was such a nice treat. We ended up extending our happy hour date into a dinner! It was not a disappointing evening, to say the least. I had the burger that was on special and it was really good! The aioli made it *chef's kiss* My husband had the chicken gnocchi and that was realllly good. I was pleasantly surprised by the texture and flavors! We sat outside and enjoyed the breeze and nice weather - it was beautiful with the little patio cover and fans. Our bartender/server was attentive but not overwhelming in any way. It was a good experience! read more

1st time here at Prospect Five Points after an awesome evening exploring Riverside. For starters we shared the Crispy Brussels with Applewood Smoked Bacon served in 3's Yummy! Ordered the Sydney Flatbread which includes Salami, Pepperoni, Bacon,Mushrooms,Marinara, Mozzarella, Basil and yes it was delicious! Drinks were great too-though forgot what I ordered but I know it was my kind of sweet and it was served like an Old-Fashioned cocktail. And the most important part of the dinner-Desert and we got to try their Key Lime Pie and yes it was great as the whipped cream melts in with the flavor. Mmmm..mmm P.S. We got lucky with the parking near the front as everyone knows 5 Points can be a challenge at times and we are grateful for the staff for accommodating us on our visit and we will be back to try the Bruschetta Board selection. read more

Was able to get a party of 15 seated inside pretty last minute the week before Christmas. The inside was decorated with cute Christmas lights and decor. The pistachio goat cheese balls were seriously delicious, these were hard to share because they were good. The Brussels are always good as well, not crunchy not soft, just right. The Duval flatbread also hits the mark if you love mushrooms like I do. They fall VERY flat on the white truffle gnocchi with grilled chicken, topped with Parmesan, somehow with all that it still has no flavor. No truffle taste, no mushroom flavor, it also came out cold. Specialty drinks took over 30 minutes to arrive. Overall, I think it's a little pricey for what comes out on their full entrees and only go if I have to. Would go back for the location and for a few apps but not for a full dinner. read more

Beautiful experience sitting outside. Friendly service with high quality cocktails and food.

First time at Prospect Five Points. Stopped in for a glass of wine and some small plates. HH ends at 6 pm. Wife and I shared the short rib sliders and rosemary frites. Both were very good. We split a prospect salad which was very good. Server was Colette; she did a great job. Noticed on the bill that if you pay with cash you get a 4% discount. All in all, a good decision to stop in at Prospect. We'll be back. read more

AMBIANCE / SERVICE: Prospect Five Points ambiance is very nice and open. They have seating indoors and outdoors, although mostly indoor. Our server was very nice and attentive throughout our visit. FOOD / DRINK: My dad and I ordered a Bloody Mary and a draft Ace Pineapple. Both drinks were good. We then ordered the Pistachio Goat Cheese Balls, Caesar Salad with Blackened Chicken, and the Margaret Street Flatbread. The Pistachio Goat Cheese Balls are AMAZING - just WOW! The Goat Cheese Balls are a must get. The Caesar Salad was good - I do wish that there was more dressing on it as the dressing was nicely made. The Margaret Street Flatbread was tasty and light. The crust was made to perfection. I think it could have used a little more goat cheese, but overall was good. read more

Disappointed with the 'Nashville hot' chicken lollipops at this place. They were more like 'Nashville not' - lacking the spice and flavor that I was expecting. Won't be coming back for this dish. The beer was good though. Adding an UPDATE: Interesting that you (the owner) respond not to address the review directly, but to try to gaslight the fact that you did have them last weekend. My review stays true that they didn't taste like hot chicken, and I'll even go out on a limb to say the sriracha is underwhelming as well. Good luck getting return customers with your business savvy. UPDATE 2 As you can tell by the response of the owner, they genuinely could care less about the customer experience. They would rather try to undermine or invalidate my overall experience instead of acknowledging the concern and moving on. Any real business owner would take the feedback as an opportunity for growth and improvement but obviously that's not what they want to do. There's plenty of restaurants in this area that will value your feedback, so I would recommend you go elsewhere. Why spend your hard earned money on someone bent on stroking their own ego. read more

Came back again and man, what a fantastic experience. My wife and I had brunch earlier in the morning so we went for a walk in the area. We decided to get cocktails and an appetizer afterwards. The wine was what we had last time, and just like last time it was wonderful. The Moscado is unreal. I also loved the other two, but we've bought that Moscato at the store because it's so good. The Bodega drink was the most amazing thing. It's like they made a drink that's made just for me, it was perfectly balanced and had a flavor profile that was so delicious. I'm not a big drinker, but I would have easily had more. The cheese balls are so simple but so good. My wife HATES goat cheese but loves these because the cheese they use isn't super tangy like most goat cheese. I'll eat eat cheese every day, so I'm in heaven. The combo of the sweet honey and the cheese with those crunchy pistachios. It's so good! That last cocktail in the champagne flute (Wish You Were Here) was so refreshing. I can imagine a warm summers day and this drink being the perfect combo. We loved it. Excellent service. And the patio was so comfortable. read more

Prospect Five Points has a new owner and I think the quality of service and food has declined. We have been fairly regular customers and didn't recognize any of the wait staff. The familiar double sided printed menu has been replaced with a large format plastic version (think Waffle House). The pictures are poor quality and there are misspellings throughout. While the food offerings remain the same, the quality is off. Our appetizer, the whipped ricotta with jalapeno and honey was so-so and the bread was barely grilled. The beef short rib sliders (a family favorite) were dry and tasteless. At least one of the flatbreads we ordered was missing an ingredient (leeks). The Hot Honey Pepperoni flatbread was quite good. You can't beat the ambience though both indoors and outside. read more
